BC Central 57, Sturgis 40

Sturgis fell behind early and never recovered in the road loss to the Bearcats.

"We dug ourselves to big of a hole early," Sturgis coach Keith Kurowski said. "It was 20 points at halftime. We did not match up well with them tonight."

Central grabbed a 16-6 edge after one quarter and increased the margin to 31-11 at the break.

"They shot as well as I've seen any team all year," Kurowski said. "They had a solid tempo and worked the ball offensively. You cannot afford many mistakes against them on the defensive end."

Sturgis had a hard time cracking the Bearcats defense.

"Defensively, they play as well or better than any team in our conference," Kurowski said. "We went ice cold from the outside. They did a good job of taking away our post play and dared us to shoot from the outside."

The Trojans played better in the second half.

"I'm proud of the way we battled in the second half," Kurowski said. "It was a great effort in the second half."
